Transition Manager - i manage the project transition of large deliverables, reporting to senior internal stakeholders and client stakeholders. Primary responsibilities on a day-to-day involve risk management and mitigation, stakeholder management, planning & scheduling, and progress tracking .
Yes - several new skills as a result of working in a high pressure environment. Existing skills have been further developed due to client-facing role
Completed my level 4 apprenticeship in November. I am now completing an Associate Chartered Management Consultant status - this qualification has been trickier so far and much less clear how to go about beginning.
Structure is lacking - the programme comprises a set of 'advised' learning courses, and then an application. The application is self-explanatory, however the 'advised' learning is largely stuff that I already know and would not be a productive use of my time
I can contact my manager when I want to - we also have monthly check-ins. I rely on support from other colleagues who are ahead of me in the qualification more so
JMC - really good Associate Chartered - support could be greater, especially at the start
my JMC qualification really helped me better perform in my job role because it helped directly develop my core consulting skills.
I am involved in the apprentice community wellbeing team - I am a team lead. Alongside this, I frequently play football with people on my project and attend networking events as and when possible
Yes
Good opportunities to grow throughout your career here. I think that it is easy to see your progression, however it can sometimes be too linear - for example, not being able to go for promotions due to length of time you have been working, rather than work performance.
